Chapter 283
Chapter 283
Nalan Yin's urging her to go back so early in the morning must mean he's heard something. Nalan Yin is terrifyingly possessive; he'll guard his food like a wolf cub, not allowing anyone, regardless of gender, to get close. Given his personality, he must be at odds with Rong Hengyu.
Nalan Jingwen didn't want to care, so he simply held the person in his arms and closed his eyes again.
"It's okay, you go to sleep, don't worry about him."
Rong Hengyu tightened his grip around her waist slightly, looked up at her, a hint of tenderness flashing in his phoenix eyes, lingering there, and a slight smile played on his lips as his tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
People outside didn't dare to go in and disturb Nalan Jingwen directly, but Nalan Yin was urging them on. Seeing how much Nalan Jingwen doted on him, they really didn't want to offend either side.
They could only relay Nalan Yin's message from outside the door once more. Just as they were about to speak, Nalan Yin strode over aggressively, her beautiful eyes sweeping over them sharply. "Where is the Prince?!"
They lowered their heads, inwardly groaning.
"The prince is still in his room."
Upon hearing this, Nalan Yin was about to break down the door and enter.
"I'd like to see which shameless vixen is it!"
Before his hand even touched the door, the guards who had been standing on either side of it blocked his way. "Young Master Yin, His Highness said that no one is allowed to disturb him."
Nalan Yin's face darkened, a strange smile curling at the corner of her lips. "She told you to stop me?"
The group remained silent, like statues, but their meaning was already quite clear.
The commotion outside the door naturally did not escape the ears of the person inside the room. Rong Hengyu gently hooked his hand around Nalan Jingwen's fingertips, and then slowly intertwined his fingers with hers.
"Your Highness, aren't you going out to take a look?"
Nalan Jingwen opened his eyes, their eyes met, and he raised his hand to cover his shimmering phoenix eyes.
"No need, he'll leave after a while."
Rong Hengyu showed no intention of removing her hand, and moved closer, pressing his palm even more against hers. The warm, soft touch beneath her palm, brushing against her eyelashes, made her feel a little itchy.
"Your Majesty..."
Before he could finish speaking, Nalan Jingwen placed a kiss on the corner of his lips. Rong Hengyu was clearly startled, her breath almost imperceptibly stopping for a moment. She could even feel the person in her arms stiffen slightly. Under her gaze, his jade-like earlobes gradually turned red, and the color seemed to deepen.
Nalan Jing was surprised by his innocence. He had acted so skillfully before, like a seasoned pro. She had thought he really wouldn't be shy.
In high spirits, she hugged and kissed him again. From the initial light kisses, the kiss gradually deepened, and the intimate sounds of wetness were particularly noticeable in the room. His originally stiff body gradually softened under her advances.
Rong Hengyu couldn't see, so he could only gently clutch Nalan Jingwen's clothes to seek a sense of security. In an extremely passive posture, he pressed his hands against her and was forced to tilt his head back to kiss her.
Nalan Jingwen could clearly feel the eyelashes trembling violently beneath his palm, the temperature in the room gradually rising, and ambiguous moans leaking from between his lips.
Nalan Jingwen released his lips, and his lips, which were originally somewhat pale, turned bright red. Suspiciously transparent water droplets appeared at the corners of his lips. His cheeks were flushed, and his fair chest, which was slightly exposed, was rising and falling. His whole body was very hot, and he was obviously very aroused, with a seductive look.
Nalan Jingwen's eyes darkened slightly, her gaze becoming completely black, almost devoid of light. She caressed his lips, gradually moving down to his chin, Adam's apple, and collarbone. Just as she was about to delve deeper, she heard a slight creak from the door, so faint it was almost inaudible. But she swiftly pulled the blanket over herself, wrapping the person in her arms tightly, and then her sharp eyes swept towards the doorway.
"who!"
But when he saw the head peeking out from the crack in the door, he was suddenly startled.
……
In the room.
Nalan Jingwen was already dressed neatly and sat in a chair with a cold and stern expression. Rong Hengyu sat upright beside her, dressed impeccably and exuding elegance and nobility. He was nowhere to be seen as the alluring woman he had just been.
Nalan Yin sat on her other side, staring intently at Rong Hengyu, making no attempt to hide her hostility. Her eyes were like pools of dark ink, unfathomable and threatening to unleash a storm.
So what if Rong Hengyu is Nalan Jingwen's consort? As long as Nalan Jingwen's heart is with him, what does it matter if his status is illegitimate? Even if Nalan Jingwen makes him his mistress, he would be willing.
Besides having a good family background, in what way is Rong Hengyu inferior to him?
He believed that his looks and figure were no less than Rong Hengyu's. Moreover, Nalan Jingwen's indulgence of him must mean that he liked him even more!
Rong Hengyu could naturally sense Nalan Yin's hostility towards him. His mind was already racing with thoughts, but he was surprised that Nalan Jingwen had taken him in so quickly. His calm gaze slowly fell on Nalan Yin, and he nodded to him, behaving like a proper husband.
His wife is Nalan Jingwen, so he represents Nalan Jingwen's face. Therefore, he should not have any objections to any decision Nalan Jingwen makes.
Nalan Jing couldn't understand the complicated thoughts in the two people's hearts, or perhaps she didn't care. She just looked at the people kneeling in front of her, as well as the richly dressed but masked boy, and remained silent with a deep gaze.
The woman kneeling beside the boy kowtowed to Nalan Jingwen and spoke first.
"Bai Ji and Xiao Congyu pay their respects to the Wise King."
Xiao Congyu.
Nalan Jingwen's gaze slowly fell on her. "Who is Xiao Jin to you?"
Xiao Congyu was taken aback, but then felt it was only natural and truthfully replied, "She is my aunt."
Xiao Jin is the tutor of the Crown Princess Baiji. She is highly respected and, unlike others, she is only responsible for teaching the Crown Princess. She is highly valued by the royal family.
There is also an unwritten rule that every crown princess taught by Xiao Jin has successfully ascended to the throne. After all, the struggle among the royal families of the four kingdoms is fierce, and even if one has already taken the position of crown princess, there is still the possibility of being brought down.
Of course, this is just an unwritten rule, and people only talk about it in private. If it were brought up in public, it would be a capital offense.
In the years since she returned, Baiji has been in turmoil, which shows how fierce the struggle between the princesses was. But what is going on now?
"I remember that Bai Ji and Feng Tian have no real connection, so what is the purpose of your trip?"
The young man sitting next to her in that carriage last night was probably the one in the picture.
Xiao Congyu looked up at Nalan Jingwen, then at Rong Hengyu beside her, and finally bowed down and kowtowed to Nalan Jingwen again, her voice firm and powerful.
"We beg a wise king to save our country!"
Rong Hengyu glanced at her, then looked at Nalan Jingwen, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Nalan Jingwen paused when he saw the seal on the letter.
It was a secret imperial edict, bearing Nalan Fengxing's private seal.
But what could be so important that Nalan Fengxing would send Rong Hengyu personally with a secret order to find her?
She took the letter, opened it, and read its contents. Rong Hengyu, without hiding anything from others, slowly said, "Your Majesty doesn't trust others, which is why I volunteered to personally escort you. Now that the new Emperor Qi Lin has ascended the throne, the previous cooperation is null and void. Now that Bai Ji has taken the initiative to seek cooperation, Your Majesty believes..."
He stopped there, leaving it at that.
……
……
Nalan Yin: The one who isn't loved is the mistress!
